Workin' in a sweat shop
Tryin' to make enough to buy an '85 panel van
Wanna see a local band
Got to pay the rent man
Slave till the weekend
Sittin' on a rooftop feelin' the pressure drop
Away from the rat-race
High in a safe place
Monday morning comes around again
Call that living
Call that living
Call that living
Draggin' down the main street
Crankin' up the radio
Brother got a mean streak
Sister in a strip show
Six-pack, video, everybody dressed to kill
Monday morning comes around again
Call that living
Call that living
Call that living
Do ya feel like the outside's closin' in
When Monday morning comes around again
Do ya feel that the outside's closin' in
Did you read in the paper you were born to win
Then Monday morning comes around again
Call that living
Call that living
Call that living
Six-pack sweat shop
Feel the pressure droppin' away
Goin' through the rooftop
Draggin' down the white line
Panel van strip show
Crank up the radio
